Hi Adrien,

I have a doubt about the action rss types in rte_flow.
testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions rss types end / end

what is the expected function of the command?
Does it mean enable RSS in no types? So actually it can disable rss all?

There are different execution result of the command from our different NICs=
.
Some NICs report error:
Caught error type 2 (flow rule (handle)): Failed to create flow.: Invalid a=
rgument
With some NICs, the command can be executed successfully, and disable rss f=
unction for all packet types.

Could you help to solve my questions?

Thank you.
Yuan.
